An Old Hazlerigg Deed Transcribed by Miss A AN OLD HAZLERIGG DEED TRANSCRIBED BY MISS A. P. DEELEY, M.A. WITH A SHORT INTRODUCTION BY S. H. SKILLINGTON An Old Hazlerigg Deed The interesting deed that follows this short introduction was recently presented to the Muniment Room at the Leicester Museum by the Rev. W. G. Dimock Fletcher, whose work upon Leicestershire genealogies is well known to students. It is now printed from a transcription specially made by Miss A. P. Deeley, who has faithfully reproduced the old spelling, except in the case of abbreviated words, which she has extended. The punctuation and the use of capital letters are as in the original text. The document itself is not difficult to understand; but it may be useful to give a brief account of the antecedents and personal career of its signatory, who was a very notable Leicestershire man. The chief party to the deed, which is dated the 22nd of October, 1659, was Sir Arthur Hesilrige, of Noseley, who succeeded his father, Sir Thomas Hesilrige, the first baronet, in 1629. The Hesilriges came into Leicestershire, towards the end of the fourteenth century, through the marriage of Thomas Hesilrige, of Fawdon, co. Northumberland, with Isabel, the eldest daughter and heir of Margaret Hastings, of Noseley, by her marriage with Sir Roger Heron, knight, who was dead in 1402. (See Leicestershire Medieval Pedigrees, by George F. Farnham, pp. 56 and 57, and Transactions of the Leicestershire Archceological Society, vol. xii, p. 228). Mr. Farnham's pedigree shows how Margaret Hastings inherited from the Martivals through her grandmother, Joyce Sadington, sister or (more probably) niece and heir of Roger Martival (d. 1329), bishop of Salisbury, great-grandson of the earliest recorded member of the family, Ralph de Martival, who was dead on the 16th of June, 1220. Sir Arthur Hesilrige, whose signature appears on the deed of 1659, married (1) Frances, daughter of Thomas Elmes, of Lilford, by whom he had two sons and two daughters, and (2) Dorothy, daughter of Fulke Greville and sister of Robert, lord Brooke, the parliamentarian general, who bore him three sons and five daughters. Dame Frances died in 1632, and the second wife, Dorothy, on the 28th of January, 1650-1. Both were buried AN OLD HAZLERIGG DEED 87 at Noseley. Sir Arthur was succeeded in the baronetcy by Sir Thomas Hesilrige, his son by Dame Frances, who married Eliza­ beth, daughter and co-heir of George Fenwicke, esquire, of Brenkeburne, co. Northumberland. The names of Thomas and Elizabeth appear several times in the deed printed below. Sir Thomas Hesilrige died on the 24th of February, 1679-80, and his wife, Elizabeth, on the 30th of May, 1673. By royal licence, dated the 8th of July, 1818, Sir Arthur Grey Hesilrige, the eleventh baronet, changed the family surname (which until that time had been spelt arbitrarily) to Hazlerigg, and so fixed it in its present form. When he appended his signature to the deed of 1659, Sir Arthur Hesilrige was nearing the end of an unusually active and contentious life, of which there is an excellent account in the twenty-sixth volume of the Dictionary of National Biography. It is stated in this that his early political conduct appears to have been mainly determined by the influence of Pym and Brooke, and that, as a staunch puritan, he was bitterly opposed to the ecclesiastical policy of Laud. He represented Leicestershire in the two parliaments that assembled in 1640; he was the proposer of the Militia Bill of the 7th of December, 1641, and was one of the five members impeached by Charles I on the 3rd of January, 1642. In the following June, he was busily engaged in executing the parliamentary commission of array in Leicestershire. He raised a troop of cavalry in Essex's army, fought under Sir William Balfour at Edgehill, became second in command to Waller, and, on the 5th of July, 1643, distinguished himself, at the head of a regiment of cuirassiers nicknamed " the Lobsters ", in the victory of Lansdowne. About this time he gave up his commission and became a recognised leader of the independents in parliament. In the summer of 1647, he allied himself with the army against the presbyterians. At the end of the following December, he was appointed governor of Newcastle, which, on the 1st of July, 1648, he succeeded in holding against Colonel Grey and the Northum­ brian royalists. Three months later, he accompanied Cromwell into Scotland, and was entertained with him at Edinburgh by Leven and Argyll. The writer of the article in the Dictionary of National Bio­ graphy goes on to say that, so long as the Commonwealth lasted, 88 LEICESTERSHIRE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY Hesilrige took a very prominent part in public affairs. He was a member of every council of state elected during that period, and persistently resisted the army's proposal that parliament should delegate its authority to a small, select body of men. Having been appointed one of the king's judges, he refused to act; he also refused to take the engagement retrospectively, though he approved of it. From the day that Cromwell dissolved the Long Parliament, Hesilrige bitterly opposed his government. He declined to pay taxes not levied by parliament, preferring to see his " oxen of value " sold for twenty shillings and forty shillings apiece. In 1654, 1656 and 1659, he was returned to parliament for Leicester. At the beginning of the parliament of 1654, he was "very instrumental in opening the eyes of the young members" to Cromwell's usurpation, but was soon excluded for refusing to take the engagement to the Protector and the new constitution. For the same reason, he was excluded from the parliament of 1656, and his name appears at the head of the list of those who signed the protest. In order to keep him out of the House of Com­ mons, Cromwell appointed him one of the upper house in 1657; but, notwithstanding the pressure put upon him, he declined this honour, and contrived to take his seat in the Commons on the 25th of January, 1658. In the parliament called by Richard Cromwell, he took a still more prominent part in attacking the government. He opposed the recognition of the new Protector, as well as the admission of the representatives of Scotland and Ireland. By 1653, he had become one of the most powerful men in the country. He was a member of the committee of safety, one of the council of state and of the committee of seven for the appointment of officers, and the recognised leader of parliament. At the Restoration, he presented a petition, urging his innocence so far as the trial and condemnation of the king were concerned; but so strong was the feeling of royalists and presby- terians against him, that it was only by the intervention of Monk that his life was saved. By section 40 of the Act of Indemnity, he was excepted for penalties (short of that of death), to be imposed by a future act to be designed for that purpose. The remainder of his life was passed in the Tower, where he died on the 7th of January, 1660-61. S. H. S. AN OLD HAZLERIGG DEED 89 The Hazlerigg Deed (Transcribed by Miss A. P.

  • INDULGENCES and SOLIDARITY in LATE MEDIEVAL ENGLAND By
    INDULGENCES AND SOLIDARITY IN LATE MEDIEVAL ENGLAND by ANN F. BRODEUR A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto Copyright by Ann F. Brodeur, 2015 Indulgences and Solidarity in Late Medieval England Ann F. Brodeur Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2015 Abstract Medieval indulgences have long had a troubled public image, grounded in centuries of confessional discord. Were they simply a crass form of medieval religious commercialism and a spiritual fraud, as the reforming archbishop Cranmer charged in his 1543 appeal to raise funds for Henry VIII’s contributions against the Turks? Or were they perceived and used in a different manner? In his influential work, Indulgences in Late Medieval England: Passports to Paradise, R.N. Swanson offered fresh arguments for the centrality and popularity of indulgences in the devotional landscape of medieval England, and thoroughly documented the doctrinal development and administrative apparatus that grew up around indulgences. How they functioned within the English social and devotional landscape, particularly at the local level, is the focus of this thesis. Through an investigation of published episcopal registers, my thesis explores the social impact of indulgences at the diocesan level by examining the context, aims, and social make up of the beneficiaries, as well as the spiritual and social expectations of the granting bishops. It first explores personal indulgences given to benefit individuals, specifically the deserving poor and ransomed captives, before examining indulgences ii given to local institutions, particularly hospitals and parishes. Throughout this study, I show that both lay people and bishops used indulgences to build, reinforce or maintain solidarity and social bonds between diverse groups.

  • A History of the English Parish: the Culture of Religion from Augustine to Victoria N
    Cambridge University Press 0521633486 - A History of the English Parish: The Culture of Religion from Augustine to Victoria N. J. G. Pounds Frontmatter More information A HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH PARISH Most writings on church history have been concerned mainly with church hierarchy, and with theology, liturgy and canon law. This book looks at the church ‘from below’, from the lowest stratum of its organisation – the parish – in which the church build- ing is seen as the parishioners’ handiwork and as a reflection of local popular culture. The book discusses in turn the origin and development of the system of precisely defined parishes, their function – in terms of economics and personnel – and the church fabric which embodied the aspirations of parishioners, who saw the church more as an expression of their cultural and social hopes than as the embodiment of their faith. The book ends with the failure of the parish to meet all its obligations – social, governmental and religious – from the late eighteenth century onwards. The book emphasises throughout that the parish had a dual function, secular and religious, becoming both the lowest level in the administrative structure of this country, and a unit for spiritual and pastoral care. These functions became increas- ingly incompatible, although the book ends on the brink of the final breakdown in the nineteenth century. N. J. G. POUNDS is University Professor Emeritus of History and Geography, Indiana University and Honorary Fellow of Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge. Born in Bath in , Professor Pounds has had a long and prolific teaching and writing career. His many publications include the three-volume An Historical Geography of Europe (, , ), which has been revised and rewritten as a single-volume, general survey under the same title (), The Medieval Castle in England and Wales (, paperback ) and The Culture of the English People: Iron Age to the Industrial Revolution ().

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-02214-0 - Bishops, Clerks, and Diocesan Governance in Thirteenth-Century England: Reward and Punishment Michael Burger Frontmatter More information Bishops, Clerks, and Diocesan Governance in Thirteenth-Century England This book investigates how bishops wielded reward and punishment to control their administrative subordinates in thirteenth-century England. Bishops had few effective avenues available to them for disciplining their clerks, and they rarely pursued the ones they had, preferring to secure their clerks’ service and loyalty through rewards. The chief reward was the benefice, often granted for life. Episcopal administrators’ security of tenure in these benefices, however, made them free agents, allowing them to transfer from diocese to diocese or even leave administration altogether; these clerks did not constitute a standing episcopal civil ser- vice. This tenuous bureaucratic relationship made the personal rela- tionship between bishop and clerk more important. Ultimately, many bishops communicated in terms of friendship with their administrators, who responded with expressions of devotion. Michael Burger’s study brings together ecclesiastical, social, legal, and cultural history, pro- ducing the first synoptic study of thirteenth-century English diocesan administration in decades. His research provides an ecclesiastical coun- terpoint to numerous studies of bastard feudalism in secular contexts. Michael Burger is Professor of History and Dean of the School of Liberal Arts at Auburn University at Montgomery. He is the author of The Shaping of the West: From Antiquity to the Enlightenment (2008) and the editor of the two-volume Sources for the History of Western Civilization (2003). His articles have appeared in Historical Research and Mediaeval Studies, among other journals.

  • The Reading Abbey Formulary (Berkshire Record Office, D/EZ 176/1)
    The Reading Abbey Formulary (Berkshire Record Office, D/EZ 176/1) Brian Kemp University of Reading In 2013 the Berkshire Record Office took possession of a small, neat parchment volume, bound in eighteenth-century vellum, which has become known as the Reading Abbey Formulary. It constitutes one of the most important acquisitions made by the Record Office for many years, and I shall say more later about how it came about. Although one cannot be absolutely certain that it is from Reading Abbey—it does not, for example, bear the usual Reading Abbey ex libris inscription: ‘Hic est liber Sancte Marie de Rading’. Quem qui celaverit vel fraudem de eo fecerit anathema sit ’, or any other medieval mark of provenance1 - a close analysis of the contents shows beyond all doubt that it was compiled either in and for the abbey or, at least, for a lawyer or senior scribe working there. As such, it was one of the small handful of Reading Abbey manuscript volumes still in private hands before it was purchased by the Record Office. It is also the only major Reading Abbey manuscript ever acquired by the Record Office, and it is therefore fitting and gratifying that after nearly five centuries since the abbey’s dissolution it has returned to the town where it was created. A number of medieval English formularies survive from monasteries, cathedrals and other corporate bodies. They form a very varied group, both in structure and in content, and were certainly not compiled in accordance with a standard plan. As far as I know, all are unique with no duplicate copies.2 The Reading example is a most interesting and valuable addition to their number.

Helmholz* In medieval England the writ of prohibition, ancestor of the modern writ used to restrain an inferior court from exceeding its jurisdiction,1 was most commonly used to restrain the courts of the Church, which administered the great body of canon law and stood independent of the jurisdiction of the King.2 Prohibi- tions, normally issued on application to Chancery or the King's Bench, lay where the subject matter of the suit belonged to the "crown and dignity" of the King rather than to the jurisdiction 3 of the spiritual courts. The writ was necessary because the medieval Church held a wider view of its sphere of subject matter jurisdiction than the King's government would allow. For example, the right to en- force contracts formalized by means of an oath was claimed by the English Church courts.4 The English common law lawyers denied the claim.5 They contended that unless the contract re- * Professor of Law and History, Washington University.

It is possible that its exemplar is earlier than NCC, since there is no mention of the tombs of two bishops (Simon of Ghent, and Roger Martival, the latter dying in 1330.) Its appearance is that of a practical, working copy rather than of one made by a professional scribe. In a few cases the script is illegible. Headings are not rubricated, and the text generally runs on without a break, though the scribe employed ¶ alternately in red and blue to indicate some divisions or key points, as also coloured, and in some cases decorated letters. This version follows the order and editorial numbering of Frere’s Use of Sarum. (An alternative version is available following the order of the source – NCS.) This is an interim edition.
